| Separated at birth ? At the moment Porsche owns 31% of the VW Group and by the end of January will own 51% making it the controlling shareholder.

| Re: Separted at birth ? New Focus looks like a Volvo V40 - another family resemblance. As to the Octy vs. Cayenne - one looks like a sumo wrestler with a big dose of flatulence.
